A few notes for Keeley

I have had a little trouble keeping up on the crafting aspect of the blog due to my rambunctious little runt running around. From here on out,  will be focusing on the super fun ones and (of course) spending my days with my runt. Things have been pretty crazy lately. First, came the big move and unpacking. Then, right as we got used to everything, I became ill. Now, the holidays are upon us and we are running around enjoying the season as a family. Many things changed when I became a SAHM, the more time consuming thing being family time. Although, I'm thankful for it, we seem to run around like crazy finding activities and new things to explore. The little one sure enjoys it! 

Honestly, I love staying home and getting to see her grow. She has learned so much in the few short months since I quit my job. She is a HUGE help when it comes time to do chores. Her favorite is unloading the dishwasher and wiping down the table. She has a blast and then runs to her chore chart to add her stickers. She is also very helpful during lunch and dinner time. She LOVES to cook. She loves to help with anything she can. Even if it just means she holds mommy's hand while mommy does the work. She thinks she is conquering the world. So, I will let her have that. I enjoy seeing the pride spread across her face when she accomplishes something and sees the hard work she has done pay off. 

She has grown into such a wonderful little girl. I look at her and wonder where my baby went. It seems like the "infant" stage never happened and at the same time was only a month ago. I look at her and see a mini adult. She is so mature and yet so fragile. She still needs my help putting shoes on and also refuses to admit that she needs help. She can do it all on her own. At least, she thinks she can. She is very independent, loving, and kind. When I was sick, she made sure she took breaks from playing to rub my back, give me a kiss, give me a hug, and tell me she loves me before running off to play again. She continues to amaze me. I couldn't imagine having a child more perfectly suited for me. She is everything I hoped for an more. All I could ask of her is that she STOP GROWING SO QUICKLY!
